DentalPlans.com Joins Board of Consumer Health Alliance
(firmenpresse) - PLANTATION, FL -- (Marketwire) -- 01/19/12 -- Today, DentalPlans.com, a leading online source for discount dental plans, announced that company President Jennifer Stoll will join the Board of Directors for the Consumer Health Alliance (CHA), the national trade association of discount health care programs.
CHA's board, which includes Careington International, Coverdell and New Benefits, works with its member companies to promote consumer-friendly business standards while serving as the voice of the discount health care industry among state legislatures and regulatory agencies across the U.S.
Discount health care programs are non-insurance programs that offer consumers direct access to health care products and services at discounted rates. CHA member companies provide discount health care services to more than 45 million Americans combined.
"The Consumer Health Alliance has worked to define the discount health care industry for consumers and regulators," said Stoll. "Our company is eager to provide value on its board and help further educate consumers about using discount dental plans."
Among the 172 million people under 65 who have private health insurance in America, about 45 million don't have dental coverage, according to the Centers for Disease Control. The lack of dental insurance and rising costs have prompted many consumers to search for discounts beyond traditional dental insurance.
Founded in 1999, DentalPlans.com represents more than 30 discount dental plans and 100,000-plus dentists participating in plans across America. The company joins the board of CHA at a time when reports indicate that more consumers are skipping dental appointments due to financial constraints. According to a 2012 Consumer Reports survey, the biggest reason for delaying dental care is cost.
